UPDATED: Berks man injured in East Vincent motorcycle crash

(UPDATED 2:41 p.m.) EAST VINCENT — One man is in fair condition at a local hospital after an accident Friday morning.

Christopher Acquaviva, 28, of Fleetwood, was heading west on Stony Run Road between West Bridge Street and Bethel Church Road on his black Suzuki motorcycle when it collided with a white Buick Century turning left into the parking lot of Kolb Bros. Meats shortly before 11 a.m., police said.

The Buick was driven by Donald Fizz, 94, of Pottstown, and his wife Eva Fizz, 92, was in the passenger seat.

In a preliminary investigation, police said Acquaviva collided with the passenger side of the car, went over the top and landed on the pavement on the other side.

There was significant damage to the passenger side of the windshield, including a small hole at the top. The front passenger side tire of the Buick was bent inward.

The speed at which both vehicles were traveling has yet to be determined but police said Donald Fizz saw Acquaviva before turning left from the eastboud lane. There was also a long, black, single track line on the pavement before the site of impact following the path of Acquaviva’s motorcycle.

Acquaviva was wearing his helmet but suffered injuries that were severe enough to be taken by medical helicopter to Paoli Hospital. Police said that Eva and Donald Fizz were treated for minor injuries at the scene.

Stony Run Road was closed for about 90 minutes while police investigated the crash.
